Hey this camera is very nice and 2 lens , solar pan & tilt feature. Cameras with speaker have been out for sometime and just can’t get how there’s a glitch with something in the operating system in a near perfect product. example crystal clear speaker. It’s nice to be able to project your voice at someone in the wrong. I might try one. Excellent video

Ok question. We have a chunk of property where we will be on 6 months per year (RV property) and while there we will have wifi, while gone there will be no wifi. Solar powered preferred. Good cell service in the area. OK it's your property what do you pick? On a budget what do you pick? Thanks

Impressive that you are still considering Eufy. I still use the PTZ cameras but the Aqara doorbell I prefer over Eufy due to the Apple Home integration and not so negative PR about privacy. Great video regardless. Keep it up George!

They were 100% dead to me after their initial response to those privacy issues. But it’s been nearly a year (maybe over a year) since that situation occurred & they’ve gone above and beyond to fix the issue since. So I decided to stop being stubborn & let go of my grudge. lol

If you can wait you may be better pleased. I don't know anything about Reolink, but I copied 2 comments from a forum and here they are; "Reolink literally doesn't have smart detection (human, pet, etc). Just motion detection. No motion zones. Wind and branches and rain trigger recordings all the time." "I have both in the house. The eufy app is much better (eg can send rich notifications, better ux timeline view). Eufy also has better out of the box homekit integration (reolink needs to go through homebridge and is not as fast there). Reolink however is better for exterior 24/7 recording using a NVR if you can run wires." Regardless, good luck!@@larrypetty4575

@@GeorgeLangabeer I would be very interested in that but I'm in a rental and not really sure what something like that would cost. I would probably have to have help with install with something like that as well, that's why I have been looking around for awhile and thought that wireless would be the way to go.
@vaporwareproducts 3 ай бұрын
Thanks, what would you say the field of sensor for image tracking is in degrees? Like you said, if the camera is panning over here it may not get over there. Does the pan/tilt “center” itself for max coverage for image detection and tracking or is that done through the 4 preset zones that you,mentioned? Sorry trying to make sure I get coverage. I saw it was 360 but trying to see if that’s true and or how the tracking coverage works. I have an area down side of house and would be great if this one unit could cover the backyard and rotate around to get the unobstructed side house view every so often kinda deal…
@vaporwareproducts 3 ай бұрын
Or are the “sensors a totally separate part and are always on 360 to detect?
@GeorgeLangabeer 3 ай бұрын
The normal FOV for this camera is 135 degrees. For your purpose it would be a good idea to have a second camera. As I’ve said in other videos…in a residential situation, I would never 100% rely on a pan tilt camera (or the tracking feature), it’s way too easy to miss something.
@GeorgeLangabeer 3 ай бұрын
This camera is great for situations where you definitely only need one camera. In that case it gives you great bang for your buck. But on a house, where you’re trying to get multiple sides, I’ll always suggest multiples.

You're very deep in the security camera market, given your own business & all of your reviews. I agree with a lot of the sentiment that this is a great camera, but that's only taking it into account as a standalone camera. As part of a broader security setup (& particularly having multiple cameras, in which case you'd most likely go for Eufy all round) - what's your take on the fact that Eufy STILL, in 2024, don't support multi-cam viewing? I'm curious because this is a fundamental feature of security camera systems that has been around for well over a decade & one that's supported by almost every other competitor on the market, yet Eufy keep refusing to add the functionality. Personally, I think without this feature it forms a fairly redundant part of a security system, given most situations in which you might need security cameras you want to be able to live view rather than just watch back events at a later date.
@GeorgeLangabeer 4 ай бұрын
I think the lack of multi-cam viewing is definitely a con. I also think that you have to hit a “play” icon to see your stream is a con. But that’s the way MOST (not all) WiFi cameras work. If you want a robust camera system with multi-cam viewing and an automatic stream, my recommendation will always be a good wired NVR system. But I think Eufy in particular could benefit from multi-cam viewing, especially since they like to sell their cameras in multi-camera packages. So you have a great point here.
@enzopeace2921 4 ай бұрын
@@GeorgeLangabeer thanks for the solid & rapid reply! Much appreciated. There are obvious short-comings to a WiFi (and battery) based system, in comparison to POE setups - they will never be comparable but are obviously designed for different use cases. In my case, I'm a renter, so I can't drill holes through things to run cabling & thus have to resort to WiFi cameras at least, but also typically solar/battery cams. I know I'm never going to get full NVR flexibility with this type of setup, but I think multi-cam viewing is a fairly basic one that could be applied without the need for POE cameras or an NVR. This appears to be a software limitation within Eufy's app more so than a hardware limitation of any of their devices. Anyway, I guess we'll keep pushing Eufy to add the feature for another 3 years & hope for the best! Thanks for the great videos though.

Well, this camera is new & hasn’t made it through a winter cycle yet. But Eufy is claiming this new solar panel needs less light than others and continues to charge in inclement weather. It’s been overcast several days during my testing & it still works great. But again, can’t say as far as the winter goes.
